This is one of Tokyo's biggest locations to see autumn leaves. This spot is only a few minutes walk from the Aoyama Itchome Station. Beginning from the Aoyama-Dori walking further into the park for approximately 300m, there are around 150 trees panted along the road.

The trees are grown straight upwards and kept trimmed every now and then to maintain the beautiful looks.

They also carry out what's called an Icho Matsuri 【いちょう祭り：いちょうまつり】during the season from Nov 15th till Dec 1st.
There will be stores and food available at Gondawara area and NikoNIko Park area.

The park was originally used as a training field for the old imperial Japanese army, then became a housing complex for the US army back in 1946, known as "Washington Heights". Once the Olympic games were held in 1964, it was designated to serve as the athletes' housing complex. The place only became a park three years after the Olympics in 1967.

The leaves change its colour around the end of November then lasts till early December.
